He is the strongest chronoman in the world and now he wants to make history by challenging, once again, the wall of time. Filippo Ganna aims for the legendary hour record and has chosen the place and time to attempt the feat. The scenario will be that of the Grenchen velodrome, in Switzerland , the same one that the Dutch Van Dijk (Trek-Segafredo) will use on Monday to attack the female limit. The dates chosen are 23 or 24 August: we'll see. There is one thing to consider, in fact: the condition of Filippo just finished the Tour de France , in which he will make his debut to hunt for the first yellow jersey in the Copenhagen time trial. If the condition is the one hoped for, the champion from Verbania will try.

Just yesterday the Giro d'Italia landed in the Ganna region, and today the finish line is in Turin where he wore the first pink jersey last year after the time trial won. The 25-year-old from Ineos-Grenadiers raced for the last time at Easter : 35th in an unlucky Paris-Roubaix but won by his teammate Van Baarle . Now he is about to complete the retreat at Teide , in Tenerife (Canary Islands). Then he will return to the Dauphiné Criterium (5-12 June) and has planned to participate in the Italian time trial championship on 22 June in Friuli-Venezia Giulia : the Tour starts on 1 July. As usual on the preparation front, he is followed by Dario David Cioni for Ineos , who works closely with track coach Marco Villa .
